Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, June 1O.-The governments radical
proposal TO close the committee on the coercion
bin by this day week viii meet tonight with
vigorous opposition from Gladstone, who regards
IL grave Straining OF constitutional privilege.
The governments course differs materially from
that pursued by Gladstone in 1851; first, because
Gladstone gave much wider scope to the Irish
opposition; second, because that opposition was
openly obstructive; third, because the regular
opposition was entirely out OF sympathy with the
Irfshmen; fourth, because, while Gladstone allowed
a fortnight for further discussion OF his moderate
coercion measure, the government now allow only
week for this perpetual and most drastic coercion
act.
TIE IRISH MEMBERS HAVE TWO PLANS
under consideration. Some OF them favor a
regular discussion on the old lines so that when
Friday arrives not more than half the bill will
have been concluded, to be closed by formal pro-
test. Others are In favor OF point-blank refusal
to take part in further debate. The first course is
dramatic and the second dangerous, as IL would
almost certainly lead 10 the partial suspension OF
the Ir1Shmen. The liberal party, though keenly
sympathetic with the Irish disapprove any scenes
OF violence and disorder. The untonists are not
entirely unanimous in support OF the govern
ment's PROPOSAL, but Harrington and Chamberlain
have resolved TO carry IL through.
tt ere is great indignation over the fact that
every Irish regiment has been passed over In the
guard OF honor on jubilee day.
The money market is still dull, though the pros
pect is generally regarded as bright.
